....if only.
The young boy in the middle anchors this fleeting moment with his grave eyes. A multi-layered image, Maciej.

Hi Maciej, Like the stare of the boy in the middle and the blur.. as usual a complex composition which is nicely mastered. I also like the color balance!

p.s. I guess u wanted the title to be Work and Food ?

Maciej-

A wonderful capture.

Night scenes such as this are difficult to capture under the best of circumstances.

The indifference of the passerby, the looks of the two boys, it all works together to create what I feel is a photo with one of the strongest messages I've seen on TE thus far.

I wish the truck wasn't in the background, but that's what you get in street photography.

Well done!

Hi Maciej
This 3D effect is so weird as is the original contrast between the strong sharpness and bluriness. The sign really does say it all.

This one speaks to me in a big way, Maciej. That slow shutter speed works wonders to bring out both the life in the movement and the frozen aspect of the two boys.
Superb...

Hi,
Great shot and real documentary one. U have used the writing work for all etc with the human presence and the blurred motion all added good impact.
Regards.

Wow! Great color, and a perfect composition. Somehow the boy found out what you were after and posed!! :-)

a pure beauty, a gem... great capture with the static boys and the motion blur of the man... impressive colors. Great!

Ciao Maciej,
What I like the most in this shot is the blurred motion effect together with the perfect sharp details fo the wall writings and the two other boys.
Great job!

the light and the sharpness are key to this photo! Congrats! It speaks for itself!

The boy trusts in the future, while the other characters do not trust so much, expecially the "ghost" passing by.
Thank you for sharing!
